Hey all,
New update today. Mostly this has some boss tweaks and a couple other things going on. The details:
- Red Devil and Necromancer, some collision tweaks and turned off their collision while they're warping or re forming. No more telefragging players if you stand where they respawn and get touched by the first pixel of their animation. You can't hurt them while they're reforming either, so it's a little trade off. Feels better and more fair this way.
- Manleech, doesn't run as far when you aggro it with a bullet. The leeches have a slightly lower max speed and their jump height is smaller making them a little easier to jump over while they hatch. The fight can still get out of control if you're careless with your bullets, so watch out!
- Frog King, starts his drop states higher up so he's harder to hit when at the top of the screen. Spawns some fireballs when he lands and also spits a baby frog when he starts doing his tongue attack.
- Now when you visit a unlock coffin room if you've already unlocked a character in your run or you previously unlocked them you will find a 1 up trick or treat pumpkin instead! I'm hoping to hide some more of these around the game too since right now you can only get them from those three rooms. It's possible to die and respawn after a miniboss and go get the 1 up pickup again.
- Victory music after boss fights shouldn't loop anymore.
A couple people have been reporting some inconsistency with achievement unlocks triggering, specifically for winning with Butternut Bro, Ms. Witch, or A Skeleton. Looking into this.
Hoping for Monday 10/24 Release!
Once I get the character endings and a few other small things in I think we'll be ready for release. If the weekend goes well I'm going to try pulling the trigger on this come Monday. This means that the price will go up to $4.99 at that point. If you're following updates and interested in getting the game at the current discounted price, here's your heads up so you can act on it.
If I wind up needing to take longer to release I'll look at the status day to day until 10/26 and treat that as close to a drop dead as I can for launching.
Maybe if I'm very lucky I can sleep in on Sunday! Hope everybody is doing well and that you have some fun Halloween plans afoot.
